Blue Island Band (Chamber Orchestra)
An orchestra performing all the performances of Tetsuya Kumakawa K Ballet Company. In the fall of 2005, the group was formed with a "theater" centered on ballet as the main venue for their activities, and in the same year began performing with the K Ballet Company. In the spring of 2007, Kazuo Fukuda, one of Japan's leading ballet music conductors, was appointed music director. Since then, he has been involved in many ballet performances other than the K Ballet Company, such as the New National Theatre, Japan, and local ballet companies.
In 2008, he began collaborating with composer Hiroshi Aoshima. Many performances have already been held, including performances sponsored by the Agency for Cultural Affairs, and the diametrically opposed collaboration of “a heartwarming talk” and “a gem of a performance” has achieved results beyond imagination.
